As we're getting ready to enter the third trimester, my clothes are getting tighter and smaller by the week. Recently I got an idea that I wish someone would have told me about sooner (or told me about at all) so I'm going to share and hope it makes it to other pregnant, fragile, feeling like a mini-whale preggo ladies.
It's simple- Go through your closet and remove or hide any clothes that don't fit anymore. Just box them up or put them at the back.
I was having a hard time putting together outfits and finding something to wear out the door in the morning and I realized It's only going to make me feel like crap every time I try to put something on only to find out it doesn't look good and doesn't even begin to fit over my tummy anymore.
So I took about an hour and put together a pile of clothes I know fit, a pile that maybe would work, and a pile that I knew already didn't. After trying on the pile of maybes and sorting those into "keepers" and "NOs" as well, I took all the nos and put them at the back of the closet and on shelves I can't reach. Then I put all the keepers in prime spots.
Now I open the closet and know what my options are before I start trying to squeeze anything on. No more getting worn out emotionally (and physically) just from putting together a decent outfit.
Voila! Simple thing but it's made my days so much better!
